A mechanism for thermal testing is described. A test vehicle includes a heating element, a thermal sensor and a processor. The processor is configured to control the heating element to output an amount of the energy per unit time. Temperature readings are received using the thermal sensor. A thermal property associated with a thermal mass is determined based at least in part the amount of the energy output and the received temperature readings.

Thermal test vehicle

A request to perform a compute task is received. A plurality of compute processor resources eligible to perform the compute task is identified, wherein the plurality of compute processor resources includes two or more of the following: a field-programmable gate array, an application-specific integrated circuit, a graphics processing unit, or a central processing unit. Based on an optimization metric, one of the compute processor resources is dynamically selected to perform the compute task.

A mechanism for thermal testing is described. The system includes a heating element, a thermal sensor and a processor. The processor is configured to control the heating element to output an amount of the energy per unit time; receive temperature readings using the thermal sensor; and determine a thermal property associated with a thermal mass based at least in part the amount of the energy output and the received temperature readings.

A mechanism for performing thermal testing is described. The system for performing thermal testing may include a housing, a heating element and a processor. The housing is configured to be compatible with a plurality of different types of transceiver form factors. The heating element is configured to be at a location within the housing to approximate an integrated circuit chip heat source of the plurality of different types of transceiver form factors. The processor is configured to automatically conduct a thermal test and provide thermal test results.

Utilization metrics associated with a plurality of eligible compute tasks executable on a plurality of field-programmable gate arrays are determined. The utilization metrics are evaluated to dynamically identify a reallocation of an identified field-programmable gate array resource of the field-programmable gate arrays to handle a selected eligible compute task of the eligible compute tasks. The identified field-programmable gate array resource is automatically reprogrammed to handle the selected eligible compute task.

Dynamic allocation of FPGA resources

A request to perform a compute task is received. A service to perform at least a portion of the compute task is identified, wherein the identified service is associated with a field-programmable gate array that has been programmed to perform at least the portion of the compute task. The identified service to perform at least the portion of the compute task of the request is invoked. At least the portion of the compute task is executed using the field-programmable gate array.
